Faunistic and Zoogeographic Studies on the Family Coccinellidae (Coleoptera) of Ankara province (Turkey)
Abstract
The main aim of this study is to determine the Coccinellidae fauna of Ankara. For this purpose, field studies were carried out in May-October 2018 and April-October 2019 in Ankara. 5310 specimens were collected. Totally 38 species belonging to 4 subfamilies and 20 genera were identified. The genus Scymnus Kugelann, 1794 is the most species-rich genus with 11 species. Faunal similarities and species diversities of districts of Ankara province are compared. According to the Brillouin diversity index, species diversities were found the highest in Akyurt and Güdül districts
